Made my 2nd set of socks as a gift for a friend. I based them on the Crazy Sock Lady "How to knit socks on magic loop" video tutorial, but using a k3p1 pattern and a jersey stitch heel instead of slip stitch.
This is my first time using self-striping yarn and it's so fun! I loved seeing the design come to life as I knit :)

- Yarn: Opal Vincent Van Gogh #5432 Vase mit Sonnenblumen" fingering (75% merino wool, 25% nylon).
Nice, wish I was your friend.
I hope the Universe brings a knitter into your life to give you many unrequested knit items. I have way more yarn and time than body to wear all the knitted stuff I make/want to make.
